Innovation doesn't go for the sake of innovation itself. Innovation should serve a purpose. And the purpose of having programming languages is to overcome the limitations of human mind, of our attention span, of our ability to manipulate concepts expressed in abstractions and syntax. We don't know how long we'll need this.

I really like Zig, I wish it appeared several years earlier. But rewriting everything in Zig might just not have practical sense soon.
